Is there any way to add the great various typography options that usually come with the brilliant Rockettheme templates to Afterburner? Like all the Blockquotes, Notice Styles, Bullets, List Styles, etc etc. I know that afterburner is all about speed, but the smart use of typography can really present content in a professional manner that is much easier to read etc.
Just wondering if someone could help a non-programmer understand if this is a hard thing to add to afterburner. Thanks guys.

Hello,
1. Find an RT template such as Nexxus
2. Copy the typography images from the typo folder inside the template
3. Copy and add the typography.css from Nexxus to your Afterburner template
4. Use Nexxus demo typography instructions for use.

This would be a nice addition to the Afterburner template, and I've tried hard to get it working. I used the typography from Meridian.
What I'm getting now are two bullets in an unordered list. The little circle, which is default in Afterburner, plus the selected bullet from Meridian. Please see attachment.
Here's my code:
<ul class="bullet-1">
<li>Opening Day - May 15</li>
<li>Ladies' Invitational - June 22</li>
</ul>
Obviously, I only need one and would prefer the one from Meridian. Suggestions please.

I had reverted to default, but have once again added the above code so that you can see what I mean. Thanks for having a look. Check Ladies' Club Tournament.

Change this in light4.css:
ul.bullet-1 li { background: none; }
and
ul.bullet-1 li, ul.bullet-2 li, ul.bullet-3 li, ul.bullet-4 li, ul.bullet-5 li {
list-style: none;
padding-bottom: 3px !important;
margin-bottom: 5px !important;
padding-left: 0 !important;
} - Yves

Unfortunately, I never was able to crank this up and make it work. I appreciate the suggestions and would love to hear from someone who was successful.
Even without this feature, I highly recommend Afterburner if you want an attractive site that loads and runs fast. Best of all, Afterburner is a free template from RT.

- I think what you need to do is go into the default "style" you are using for your template and comment out (or change "circle" to "none") for the ul section. Do a search in the css (I'm using light.css) and you will find the section you need to comment out. I think that should work.

it's a rather old thread - but to 'import' the really cool typography elemts from RT and to use in 'free' template is allway's one of the most question.
as Mike VanKirk has postet how to import the typo's - it works very well.
i use afterburner for a website for brain injured people (now still on joomla 1.x and JA Teline template) and soon i upgrade it on afterburner with the latest (very cool) typo's from RT Omnicron.
see/dl screenshot here http://www.nexus-webdesign.info/pic/afterburner_typo.gif
and to delete line 14 in the original css file of the chosen theme...a:hover {text-decoration:underline;} /* ul {margin:1em;} - removed for typograhy by nWd */ p {margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px;}
don't forget to empty your browser cache and if you work with xampp/wampp or something else... close and restart your locale webserver.
if there is any problem... i would like to help, no problem
